Chapter 770: Isn't this too biased?

"Zheng Jing went around swindling people, pretending to be your fiancé, damaging your reputation, and the influence is extremely bad. Furthermore, he also presumptuously directed members of the Thorn to do things for the Zheng family. His crime deserves death." Zeng Rou replied.

Her words made Zheng Jing, not far away, feel his knees go weak, almost falling to the ground.

"Hmm, then I'll leave it to you to handle." Tang Bingyan nodded with satisfaction, then stood up and walked outside.

The members of the Thorn standing on both sides hurriedly followed, majestically escorting her away.

"Emperor, please calm your anger... please calm your anger!" The head of the Zheng family still wanted to step forward, but was pushed to the ground by a member of the Thorn.

After Tang Bingyan left, Zeng Rou arrived in front of Zheng Jing in a flash and twisted Zheng Jing's neck right in front of everyone.

It was just a small Zheng family; the Thorn had no need to fear.

Even if they offended the Zheng family because of this, they didn't care.

To the Thorn Emperor, the Zheng family was just an ant. Who would care about the revenge of an ant?

Zheng Jing's corpse, still retaining some warmth, fell onto the cold stone road, dying with his eyes wide open.

Even until his death, he didn't know why he had angered the Thorn Emperor. The marriage between their two families was clearly decided by the old family head!

As for the Zheng family high-levels, who had originally thought they had the Thorn Emperor's backing and were arrogant, they now had ashen faces and could only sneak away from the manor under the inquisitive and mocking gazes of the crowd.

Xu Tian stared at Tang Bingyan's back, clenching his fists tightly.

No, he couldn't let this woman leave!

"Zhong Ling, Zhong Yu, you two go back first. I have something to handle."

After saying this, Xu Tian chased in the direction the Thorn Emperor had left.

"Brother Yi! Where are you going? This is the Thorn's territory, don't run around!" Zhong Yu wanted to follow, worried, but in the blink of an eye, Xu Tian had already disappeared.

"Oh no, Brother Yi wouldn't have gone to challenge the Thorn Emperor one-on-one, would he?" Zhong Yu muttered worriedly.

With Brother Yi's foul temper, he definitely wouldn't be willing to let the Thorn Emperor have the upper hand.

"Zhong Ling, what do you think we should do? Wait here for Brother Yi, or escape first?"

Zhong Ling looked coldly at the faction leaders around them who held hostility toward them and shook her head silently.

What to do now, she didn't know either.

On the other side.

"Emperor, do you need to handle the others in the Zheng family as well?" Zeng Rou asked for instructions.

The Emperor ordered the death of the Zheng family's heir; the head of the Zheng family would definitely harbor hatred. Although the Thorn didn't put the Zheng family in their eyes at all, rather than giving the Zheng family a chance to cultivate power for revenge, it would be better to just kill them all, saving future trouble.

"No need." After leaving in front of everyone, Tang Bingyan's complexion wasn't very good.

"Then this subordinate will withdraw first." Seeing Tang Bingyan's unhappy expression, Zeng Rou very tactfully dismissed the guards standing by and then retreated herself.

At the same time, Xu Tian also followed all the way here.

He saw that after Tang Bingyan's subordinates had all left, she walked alone into a Western-style small building in front of her.

Now that Tang Bingyan had no one else around her, he had the perfect opportunity to ask clearly in person.

However, just as Xu Tian was hesitating whether to go over immediately, Tang Bingyan, who was stepping up the stairs, paused, her whole body stiffening.

Xu Tian didn't know if she had noticed someone behind her, so he simply walked out from behind the tree.

"Thorn Emperor, what a coincidence..."

Tang Bingyan's pupils suddenly contracted, and her body became even stiffer.

However, she quickly adjusted her emotions, and when she turned around, her expression was as indifferent as ever.

"Wolf King, the meeting has already ended. This is my private territory; you shouldn't have broken in."

"Private territory?" Xu Tian smiled ambiguously, "I have something to ask you. Why don't you pick a place, and we'll talk."

Xu Tian had originally thought that the Thorn Emperor would have a different reaction after seeing him, but now the woman before him acted as if she really didn't know him.

What exactly was going on?

Could it be that he really had mistaken the person?

Or did Tang Bingyan have some unavoidable hidden reason, unable to acknowledge him...

However, if she really had a hidden reason, but there was no one around now, what else did she have to worry about?

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Xu Tian's mind, and at the same time, he made up his mind to find out the true identity of the woman before him.

Tang Bingyan's eyes flickered slightly, but in the end, she said nothing and turned to walk into the small building.

"If you don't refuse, I'll take it as your tacit consent."

Xu Tian also quickly chased after her.

Lin Shanshan, who hadn't attended the meeting, had originally followed behind the main group, intending to find Tang Bingyan to ask clearly, but now seeing Xu Tian suddenly appear, she was afraid of being seen by him, so she hurriedly hid behind a large tree on the side of the small path and peeked toward the direction of the small building.

Until both Tang Bingyan and Xu Tian had walked into the small building, she then tiptoed and followed.

After Tang Bingyan walked into the small building, she walked directly along the stairs to the second floor, where there was a small reception room.

Lin Shanshan, who was following, saw Xu Tian also walk into the reception room, and only then did she hold her breath and arrive at the door.

Fortunately, the door to the reception room wasn't closed tightly, so she carefully looked inside through the crack in the door.

Inside the reception room, Tang Bingyan sat on a single sofa, looking at Xu Tian with a calm expression, and asked in a formulaic tone.

"What does the Wolf King want with me?"

Seeing the woman before him still maintaining an indifferent attitude, a nameless fire rose in Xu Tian's heart.

Along the way, he had found many reasons for Tang Bingyan.

Some unavoidable hidden reason, too many eyes and ears.

He had even considered the situation where someone was monitoring nearby.

But now there were only the two of them in the room; Tang Bingyan had no reason to pretend to be a stranger anymore.

"Emperor, I saw you today and felt you looked somewhat familiar. Your appearance is very similar to a friend of mine; it looks just like the same person..."

"People have similarities; this is not strange." Tang Bingyan folded her hands, unperturbed, but her fingertips dug deeply into her flesh to control her facial expression.

She couldn't reveal any flaws in front of Xu Tian.

"Really just similarities?" Xu Tian pressed step by step, "I don't think so, right?"

"The world is vast, and there are all sorts of wonders. Why must the Wolf King make such a fuss?" Tang Bingyan said indifferently.

"I'm making a fuss?" Xu Tian was angered by her attitude once again.

Only now did he realize that every word and action of this woman could easily affect his emotions.

"Alright then, let's change the topic." He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, "Earlier, in front of the faction leaders, why did you favor me? It is said that the Zheng family was one of the first families willing to submit to the Thorn. Your attitude toward them and the Azure Wolf Hall is too biased, isn't it?" ===== CHAPTER 771 =====

"I'm making a fuss over nothing?" Xu Tian was once again provoked by her attitude.

Only now did he realize that every word and action of this woman could easily stir his emotions.

"Fine, let's change the subject." He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. "Earlier, in front of the high-level members of the various gangs, why did you favor me? It is said that the Zheng family was one of the first families willing to submit to Thorn. Your attitude toward them compared to the Azure Wolf Hall is a bit too biased, isn't it?"
